Abstract:
African Swine Fever is non-zoonotic viral disease affecting pigs worldwide, with severe implications for many sectors such as national economies and pig populations. The disease control strategies are variable across the globe and its implementation and outcome depend on many factors. One Health describes the collaborative effort across disciplines to address public health challenges involving human, animal, and environmental aspects. African Swine Fever is not commonly understood under the concept of One Health. However, the disease has a great impact on all One Health interfaces. This paper reviews and discusses how the vast impact of ASF, a non-zoonotic disease, still demands a holistic perspective to address global challenges and opportunities to control the disease.
